I decided that if we were going to go to Vegas we should at least pay a little visit to the Home of Kitsch itself. We got the free shuttle from the Bellagio (sadly we didn't tip the driver) and paid the $15pp admission fee. We were just in time for the guided tour and I must say it was not one of the most descriptive or informative tours I have ever taken, but some good information was given. If you want to look at shiny things, this is most definitely the place to go. Half way through the tour it did get rather annoying since the tour guide was repeating her self and giving little information which was not already written down. Though the museum is small, the grandness of its contents almost makes up for it. The costumes have to be seen to be believed. I can't say that I am sorry to have gone there, but I can definitely say that I will not be going back.

We didn't know that the museum is closed on Mondays so it would have been easier not to go back on Tuesday. Glad we did. I really didn't know much about Liberace other than seeing the flambuoyant performer on TV when I was a kid.

This museum is one of a kind, just like Liberace. From his costumes, to his jewelry, to the automobiles, pianos and everything else in the museum, it was fantastic. I now have a great appreciation of the man. It was great to see many of his fine antiques as well. I also enjoyed reading about his youth and seeing the photos of him and his family.

I have a lot of respect for him now. I never really thought that much about Liberace before. He was a fine human being. You just know that after you've toured his museum.

We went to Vegas in March 08 and I was looking forward to going to the Liberace museum. It is a fair way from the strip and we took a cab there (they will give you a discount on the admission price if you do), and made sure we went when Wes Winters was playing in the afternoon. We loved the museum - the costumes are amazing, and the staff very knowledgeable. It was well worth the extra to see the show, as Wes is fabulous - very talented and the show was great: funny, excellent music and feel good. What more could you ask for?

We got the free shuttle bus back, which was very convenient and much cheaper than another cab back.

We visited the museum on a Sunday afternoon. It is $15 for 2 buildings: one with cars and pianos, the other with costumes and furniture. A docent in the costume building provided some interesting details on the costumes. I was surprised that there was no short movie that showed his act or described his life. It's not worth a detour.
